lanber what is it worth?

we just picked up a lanber auto with the engraving on the side. in perfect shape 99% or better bluing and perfect wood. i have never heard of them before but it came with the box and original packing foam and all the papersand chokes. every thing that was in the box when it was baught new was still in it when i got it. is it a good brand? is it worth the 315 i spent on it?

Good basic shotguns that are reportedly used commonly in European rental and training environments. The cheapest that I've seen them sell for locally is about six hundred dollars new and they commonly sell locally for around eight bills - I would say that you got quite a deal.

I don't see many of them around ....not sure if they're still in business...but I think they were made in Spain.

Gun shows or Cabelas ...might be able to give you a ballpark value...but I think $ 300 - $ 400 is about right.

They are still making guns but right now there is no importer for them.

But I think someone out there is working on becoming a US importer for the line, they make a nice O/U for the moey.

CDNN is selling off someone's inventory right now at good price's.
